相关论文: The Jigsaw Puzzle of Scalar Mesons
This talk is a brief account of recent developments on light scalar meson spectroscopy. I mostly focus on the major revision of the $\sigma$ or $f_0(500)$ meson in the Review of Particle Physics, driven by new data and the accummulation of…
An approach to understanding the light scalar meson phenomenology is briefly reviewed.
The crucial points of physics of light scalar mesons are discussed. The special attention is given to the chiral shielding of lightest scalar mesons and the production of the well established light scalar mesons in the \phi radiative…
The following topics are considered. 1) Confinement, chiral dynamics, and light scalar mesons. 2) Chiral shielding of the \sigma(600) 3)The \phi meson radiative decays about nature of light scalar resonances. 4) The J/\psi decays about…
Half a century of work on the light scalar mesons $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$, $K_0^\star(700)$, and $a_0(980)$ is briefly reviewed. After summarising all light scalar candidates in the Review of Particle Physics since 1963, a selection of…
The following topics are considered. 1. Confinement, chiral dynamics and light scalar mesons. 2. $\phi$-meson radiative decays about nature of light scalar resonances. Arguments in favor of the four-quark model of the $a_0(980)$ and…
In this talk I briefly review the recent developments on light scalar meson spectroscopy, paying particular attention to the causes of major revision of the $\sigma$ or $f_0(500)$ meson in the Review of Particle Phsycis. This resonance,…

The simulations of the light scalar mesons on the lattice are presented at the introductory level. The methods for determining the scalar meson masses are described. The problems related to some of these methods are presented and their…
Outline: 1. Introduction, 2. Confinement, chiral dynamics and light scalar mesons, 3. Chiral shielding of \sigma(600), chiral constraints, \sigma(600), f_0(980) and their mixing in \pi\pi\to\pi\pi, \pi\pi\to K\bar K, and…
The structure of the light scalar mesons is elucidated by the investigation of the S-matrix poles and the q-qbar spectral density in a coupled channel model that includes pi-pi, K-Kbar and q-qbar channels. It is shown that the dynamical…
The light-quark non-strange scalar mesons a0(980), f0(980), f0(1370), a0(1450), f0(1500) and f0(1710) are of great interest as there is no generally accepted view of their structure which can encompass q-q-qbar-qbar, molecular, q-qbar and…
Among the many unresolved questions in light quark spectroscopy, the underlying structure of the scalar mesons and the identification of states with a gluonic content rank high. Recently, new information has come from $\phi$ radiative…
After a brief review of the puzzling light scalar meson sector of QCD, a brief summary will be given of a paper concerning radiative decays involving the light scalars. There, a simple vector meson dominance model is constructed in an…
Outline: 1. Introduction, 2. Confinement, chiral dynamics and light scalar mesons, 3. Chiral shielding of the \sigma(600), chiral constraints (the CGL band), the \sigma(600) and the f0(980) in \pi\pi->\pi\pi, \pi\pi->KKbar,…
Non-leptonic D meson decays may provide a reliable testbed for the multiquark interpretation of light scalar mesons. In this letter we consider D_s decay and show that a 4-quark f_0(980) meson could induce a decay pattern, which is…
The low and approximately equal masses of the scalar mesons $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$, as well as their relatively small decay widths, are impossible to understand in terms of standard $P$-wave quark-antiquark states. Here, these mesons are…
We study the light scalar mesons a_0(980) and kappa using N_f = 2+1+1 flavor lattice QCD. In order to probe the internal structure of these scalar mesons, and in particular to identify, whether a sizeable tetraquark component is present, we…
A brief discussion of the recent interest in light scalar mesons motivates the study of a generalized linear sigma model. In an SU(3) flavor invariant version of the model there is a prediction that the the lighter scalars have sizeable…
Although studied for many years the nature of the light scalar mesons remains controversial. Here we shall present a method, applicable for s-wave states located close to a threshold, that allows one to quantify the molecular part of a…
